According to the SABC, Mazibuko felt that Cosatu stood in opposition to rulings that could greatly relieve youth unemployment. “On the one hand, they oppose corruption, and programmes such as e-tolling in Gauteng,” she said. “On the other hand, they continue to oppose a policy which would create an estimated 423 000 jobs for young, unemployed South Africans.” Mazibuko had written to COSATU’s General Secretary, Zwelinzima Vavi, to request a meeting in which they could discuss such issues. Vavi allegedly declined the request. In reply, Spokesperson of COSATU Patrick Craven said they did not see any benefit in discussing such issues with the DA, for they have too many fundamental differences. “The basis for these differences are rooted in the fact that while COSATU represents the working class and the poor, the DA speaks for big business, the wealthy and the privileged,” he explained.

However, they have targeted Palestinian militant sites in the Gaza Strip in response to continued rocket fire on southern Israel. According to various news sources, 25 Palestinian lives have already been lost during the border conflict. The conflict reportedly began when an Israeli air raid killed senior military leader Zohair al-Qaisi, the Secretary General of the Popular Resistance Committees (PRC). Israel claimed to have attacked him because he was planning an attack on them. The ceasefire constituted of a simple telephone agreement, and soldiers were to stop shooting early in the morning on Tuesday 13 March, but it has not proved complete, as was the case with previous agreements. Rocket fire and air strikes have continued sporadically but there have been no reports of additional casualties.

Last week, local media reported atrocities committed against migrants by trafficking gangs which kidnap migrants for ransom from their families in the Gulf Arab states.

While academic staff teach you about referencing techniques and how to avoid plagiarism, you too have a responsibility in this regard. If you are at any stage uncertain as to what is required, you should speak to your lecturer before any written work is submitted. You are guilty of plagiarism if you copy something from another author’s work (e.g. a book, an article or a website) without acknowledging the source and pass it off as your own. In effect you are stealing something that belongs to someone else.

  • How Ninja from Die Antwoord Performs South African White Masculinities Through the Digital Archive
    ZEF AS PERFORMANCE ART ON THE ‘INTERWEB’: How Ninja from Die Antwoord performs South African white masculinities through the digital archive by Esther Alet Rossouw Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree MAGISTER ARTIUM in the Department of Drama Faculty of Humanities University of Pretoria Supervisor: Dr M Taub AUGUST 2015 1 ABSTRACT The experience of South African rap-rave group Die Antwoord’s digital archive of online videos is one that, in this study, is interpreted as performance art. This interpretation provides a reading of the character Ninja as a performance of South African white masculinities, which places Die Antwoord’s work within identity discourse. The resurgence of the discussion and practice of performance art in the past thirty years has led some observers to suggest that Die Antwoord’s questionable work may be performance art. This study investigates a reconfiguration of the notion of performance art in online video. This is done through an interrogation of notions of risk, a conceptual dimension of ideas, audience participation and digital liveness. The character Ninja performs notions of South African white masculinities in their music videos, interviews and short film Umshini Wam which raises questions of representation. Based on the critical reading of Die Antwoord’s online video performance art, this dissertation explores notions of Zef, freakery, the abject, new ethnicities, and racechanges, as related to the research field of whiteness, to interpret Ninja’s performance of whiteness. A gendered reading of Die Antwoord’s digital archive is used to determine how hegemonic masculinities are performed by Ninja. It is determined that through their parodic performance art, Die Antwoord creates a transformative intervention through which stagnant notions of South African white masculinity may be reconfigured.

  • Visitor Motivations and Barriers for Sustainable Music Festival Tourism: the Case of Street Mode & Reworks Festivals
    Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Jan.-Feb. 2021, Vol. 9, No. 1, 14-25 doi: 10.17265/2328-2169/2021.01.002 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Visitor Motivations and Barriers for Sustainable Music Festival Tourism: The Case of Street Mode & Reworks Festivals Vasiliki Georgoula Agricultural University of Athens, Athens, Greece Despina Chrisidou Marketing & Business Development Professional, Athens, Greece Spyridoula Dimitra Souki Hellenic Open University, Patras, Greece During the last decade, music festivals are increasingly used as an important motivator to attract visitors, giving rise to a more sustainable tourism growth in hand with cultural stimulation for the cities. This research paper aims to address the motives and barriers of music festival visitors travelling to attend two music events in the second largest Greek city of Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. The main objective of the research paper is to determine the visitors’ motivation for choosing to attend each festival and thereafter the challenges they face during their visit in the city. This exploratory research study focuses on two distinct and popular music festivals namely Reworks Festival and Street Mode Festival. Both events share three main characteristics: (1) They host both international & Greek professional artists; (2) they are primarily privately funded; and (3) they have achieved a consecutive 10 years of successful presence in the city attracting thousands of visitors each year. The research methodology is based on the collection of qualitative data by conducting one to one interviews with festival visitors. Findings of the analysis of the two festivals direct at identifying the commonalities & differences in tourists’ drives and obstacles in regards to their festival attendance and visit in the city of Thessaloniki.
